Last December, someone bought a Powerball ticket in Fairfield County.

That ticket is worth a million bucks from that Dec. 5 drawing with the winning of 13 - 27 - 33 - 47 - 68 and Powerball number 13.

So far, nobody has cashed in the ticket.

That person had up until Thursday, before that ticket expires.

After that, the ticket will be worth ... nothing.

Lottery officials have not released the location of where in Fairfield County the ticket was sold.

They stressed that the person who bought the ticket may work in Fairfield County, but does not necessarily live there.

There is also another $1 million Powerball ticket - also sold in Fairfield County - that is also unclaimed. That ticket expires after July 7. The winning ticket is from the Jan. 9 drawing with the the numbers 16-19-32-34-57, Powerball 13

To claim the prize, on or before Wednesday, go to a CT Lottery retailer or Lottery Headquarters where the retailer or the Lottery will validate your ticket through their terminal.
